Very exciting way to celebrate the fact that Manitoba has 95% of its power from renewable hydro electricity!

Great idea!!

I heard that the power surge that occurred when everybody turned their lights back on blew hundreds of transformers and killed thousands of people. Class Action suits have already been filed.

I just closed my eyes for an hour, so I couldn't tell if the lights were on or not. Pretty well the same effect isn't it??

I turned everything off for an hour, except my server and my laptop. But my laptop was running on battery, so does that count?

So THAT's why we had a one hour blackout during our hockey game... (Just an excuse, torrential rain knocked out a transformer and we lost 8-1...).
